Happy Hour Thursday: Hibiscus Sangria

It's true, you might not have too many hibiscus flowers floating around, but who wouldn't love a little sangria with a twist?

Ingredients
1 bottle dry white wine
2 cups hibiscus tea (already steeped and cooled)
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup simple syrup
1/4 cup orange curacao
1/4 cup Hendricks gin
1 orange, cut into slices
1 lemon, cut into slices
1 liter 7-Up
Lemon wheels, thinly sliced, for garnish
Orchids, for garnish

Directions
Combine all of the ingredients except for the 7-Up and garnishes in a large ceramic or glass container and stir well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Serve over ice and fill about half full. Top with 7-Up. Garnish with floating thin lemon wheel and orchids.
